The Smell of Summer

It's here, soon. I know it's barely Spring but there's a certain kind of smell this time of year has and it creates mixed emotions within me because it triggers very strong memories. Last summer started out really shitty, but ended very very well and now whenever I go outside they come back. It started out Monday of this week, I left around 7:30 that morning and it was really humid and felt like summer and smelled like summer and it brought back memories of when I would be just getting back to my apartment at that time in the morning so early. It just FEELS like summer though I am sure we'll have another cold spell before this sticks around for good, that's how it usually works. Maybe not, I hope not anyway. But that's all. Memories are good. Summer is good. Life is good. I'm happy, or at least on my way. I'm calmer. I don't lose my temper as often. The glass is half full. I hope it stays that way.
